list majority OF 65S has been converted into
Gladstonian majority of l,129. This has
involved a turning of 1,7S7 votes in regis

only wiped out the adverse majority Of last

PlITROID FOUTPMENTS.

The frightful slaughter at Piper City ought
to mark the end of all wooden bridges, and
not only bridges but trcstle-works.
culyerts and every other kind of construction
on railroad lines liable to destruction by malice
or negligence. Although in the Piper City
case the company appears anxious To spread
the impression that the bridge was set on lire,
it is perfectly evident that this consideration
is of only secondary importance. The fact
Of primary significance is that this corporation
left all its passengers at the mercy OF chance
or accident, and this in district and country
where the possibilities of such an accident
were far more numerous than usual 1t has
been shown that there was much dry grass
along the track; that it had been necessary to
burn il and that the burning was the sole
precaution taken TO preserve the wooden
structure. 1t Is plain that there should have
been no wooden bridge on such line. ID
is equally plain that wooden bridges should
not be allowed on any railroad; and wherever
the public interests are properly guarded
such structures are prohibited.
The road which is clearly responsible fol
the Piper City slaughter may or may not BIO
bankruptcd by the liabilities incidental to the
disaster II it is there is too much reason
to fear that the chief losers will be the plain
tiffs In tho suits for damages. But public
opinion ought to be expressed generally on
this occasion against the methods OF railroad
administra ton which expose the people con-
tnuay to the same kind Of danger ON many
railroads. There is no justification anywhere
for wooden bridges, culverts or trcStles, for
temporary and destructible equipments of any
kind outside Of the rolling stock. In Europe
all bridges and other railroad structures must
be of iron or stone There is no reason what
ever why the same rule should not apply
throughout the United States to-day. With
regard TO most lines the State Legislatures
Of course must exercise control, but the proper
pressure upon those bodies would compel
them TO guard the public interests more care
fully There are, when all has been done
which is possible, far too many possible dis
asters against which human prccaution is
vain, but this consideration ought to make
the people all tho more particular regarding the
avenues Of danger which can be guarded
ctfectualy. The day of the wooden bridge
has passed, and it should be prohibited
henceforth.

More than one subject of general interest
was taken up yesterday by the American AS
sociation for the Advancement of Science. The
topic that will attract the greatest attention
was the Nicaragua Canal, but good second to
this was furnished in the two papers of Mr.
Edison. Everything said about the Nicaragua
Canal in the four contributions on that subject
was highly favorable. Engineer Peary's paper,
giving the result of Engineer MenOcal's obser-
vations and estimates is easily the most i'm
portant OF the tour. The cost Of the canal is
set down as about $64, 900, 900; six years will
be required to locate and construct it, and when
finished steamship can pass from end to end
10 thirty hours. These are estimates only,
and estimates must always be taken with al

LOST AT SEA.

On the goth of August, the second
day out of the bark Caibarien from
San Francisco, two men fell over
board, one of whom was lost. On
the morning of that day at about
$3.50 O'Clock the jibboom of the bark
was carried away, and that after
noon while the second mate and a
sailor were setting the stays the
guys gave way, and both seamen
fell into the sea. The Caibarien was
hove to with all possible haste, and
boat lowered. The sailor was
picked up, but the second mate
could not be found. The officer
could swim but was probably struck
by the vessel and disabled, or caught
by shark. The lost officer was a
Swede of about 80 years Of age and
unmarried He had signed the arti-
Giles as j. L. Jackson, but was bet
ter known by the name of jacobson,
he having been on the Caibarien be-
fore under that name.

LoCoMnIIYES FOR HIGH SPEED.

It is within the recollection Of
young men of this day that the
horse which trotted a mile in 2:40
was one of the fast ones, and when
talk of a locomotive making a mile
in mile was received with incre-
dulty. To-day the limit for a
locomotive is little more than half
that expressed in the phrase "a
mile a minute" Engineer John
Hogan, on the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad engine 1874, has
driven it at the astonishing speed of
a mile in thirty-eight seconds. Other
engineers with Reading engines 206,
All, 90, 81, SO and SO have made
miles in forty-three and forty-four
seconds. Hogan's speed is at the
rate of over ninety-four miles per
hour. Those of the others are
respectively eighty-three and half
and almost eighty-two miles per
hour. These high rates of speed
were made under circumstances all
of which were favorable to sue
cessful test.
These are the extreme limits of
high speed for short distances, but
Observation-Disclosures are emulous to
increase the speed of their machines
so that an average speed of eighty
miles per hour shall replace the old
time of limit of sixty.
A novelty in the line of engine
building is just now attracting the
attention of engineers and builders.
1t is locomotive designed by M.
Estrada, a graduate of L'Ecole
Polytechnique, which is to be ex-
perimented with on the southern
lines of France. The new locomo-
tive depends on its large-sized driv-
ing-wheels for the speed of seventy
eight miles per hour, which it is
expected to attain. The engine,
tender and coaches are fitted with
wheels 81 feet in diameter. The
engine is of the outside-cylinder
type, with slide-valve on top Of
cylinder and all the gearing carried
outside. The average speed which
the locomotive is expected to make
is between seventy-two and seventy
eight miles per hour with train of
loaded coaches.
OF course if the French engine
averages the speed expected she will
be able to make "spurts" exceeding
anything on reoord.-TBos Adj

ARRIVAL OF the OLIVE.

The New Zealand schooner Olive,
under command of Capt. Ross, ar
rived here this morning, 81 days

tons of guano. The Olive is a nice
looking schooner of 81 tons register
Her length is 96 feet over all and
beam 22 feet. Mr.. Ellis, manager
of the Guano Company came by the
vessel to dispose of the guano. The
Olive, after discharging her cargo,
will return to the Southern Islands,
where she has been trading for
years. On the way here she had
head winds all the time and during
blow her jibboon was carried away.
This is the first time the Olive has
been here. Her crew numbers six
men all told. She is locked near
the P. M. S. S. wharf, and will pro-
badly begin discharging tomorrow.

OPEN TO SETTLEMENT.

Washington, August 27.-The
Commissioner of the General Land

INTERNATIONAL ExTRADITION.

Chicago, Aug. 3O.-A Chimes"
Washington special says: The Wash
ington "Star" asserts that at the
State Department it is believed that
an extradition treaty between Great
Britain and this country will be
negotiated at an early day, as every
thing seems favorable to this result.
1t is said that the growing objections
of the Canadians to that country
being a Botany Bay for this country
has induced the Home Country Act.
In addition to this statement In the
"Star" it may be added that Minis
ter Phelps has been industriously
laboring to bring about basis for q
convention which would be satisfac-
tory to the United States and to
Great Britain.
Quite number of tentative drafts
have been interchangei, but, like
King Charles /. heard of in Mr..
Dicks memorial, something has
continually obtruded itself, which
one side or the other thought would
be Objectionable to their respective
Governments, and one serious point
for consideration has been whether
if treaty of the kind proposed
were concluded and ratified it's pro-
visions could be made 50 as to In
clude in its operations an offender
like McGarrigle and the New York
Aldermen now in Canada. The con-
census of opinion on both sides Is
that no retroactive provision could
be put into effect.
